Housing inflation brings singles back to their parents’ homes! – Tejarat News

According to Tejarat News, the housing market has gone through many problems in recent years; The problems that have not only not improved over time, but have also increased the size of the crisis day by day.

The problem of lack of supply against the existing demand in the society is one of these problems. Stagnation in construction, increased investment in the housing sector and as a result the existence of empty units are among the reasons for this lack of supply.

Recently, it has been stated in a research that the change of the society pattern and the increase of small and single-person families have also been involved in this increase in the demand for houses in the city of Tehran.

Based on this, the number of single-person households in Tehran in 2015 was equal to 10% and increased to 12%. Also, the number of two-person households, which was equal to 22% in 1995, has grown to 25%.

On the other hand, the number of households with three people or more, which in 1995 was equivalent to 30% of Tehran’s population, has now decreased to 28%. Therefore, in the seven-year period, the number of households living in Tehran has decreased. The number of single-person households in this metropolis has also increased by two percentage points compared to 1995.

Naturally, the recent economic problems and people’s reluctance to marry and have children have been influential in the shrinking of families in a metropolis like; A city where the housing crisis is felt more than any other city in the country.

The return of singles to family housing

Of course, since the beginning of 1402, this story has found another dimension, and in case of re-statistics, new results may be presented. This year, the rental market experienced an unprecedented inflation. A large number of households were forced to migrate to lower areas, and some could neither settle in a new house nor find a new house within their budget when their contract expired.

Therefore, a large number of singles are forced to return to their parents’ homes. According to the report published earlier by Farda Eghtan, the number of 30 to 40-year-old people who have been forced to live with their families has increased since 2016 due to the intensification of housing inflation.

Some of these people who had migrated from the city to Tehran left their jobs and lives behind and returned to the cities.

Alireza Fakhari, the governor of Tehran, also told ILNA: In the housing sector, the cost of renting and providing housing is high, and preferably those who cannot live in Tehran return to their city and live there. When the supply and demand conditions are unbalanced here, it naturally affects the pricing aspect as well, and this creates the context for the decision to reverse migration, and we see this process and it is noticeable.

He continued: In the visits we make in this area of ​​Tehran, many people admit that they could not stay in Tehran and therefore returned to their villages and neighborhoods.

Investigating the problems of the housing market opens a new door to this ruin every day. The ruins left by macroeconomic problems and wrong policies in recent years.

If new policies are not prepared in the future to organize the housing market and the economic and social crisis of the country casts a shadow on it every day, in the near future the same number of people who are able to rent and buy housing will also leave and suffer from poor housing. ; In this way, marginalization will cause new problems.
